Fergusons Cove

Fergusons Cove in Nova Scotia is a beginner-friendly shore dive in a sheltered cove within Halifax Harbour's outer approaches. The site offers easy entry from a rocky shore into calm, protected waters. The bottom features a mix of boulders, gravel, and sand supporting typical Halifax-area marine life. Lobsters are commonly spotted among the rocks, while sea stars, sea urchins, and moon snails carpet the bottom. The cove's proximity to the harbour entrance means nutrient-rich tidal water flows through regularly, supporting healthy marine growth. A convenient and reliable local dive spot for Halifax-area divers seeking a quick and easy dive.
